Santa dropped his load early on the IMP this year: 3 @WWTF grants for #syntheticbiology projects coordinated by @clausen_lab, @obenaufa & @diana__pinheiro. This will make for a very Merry Christmas! 🎅💵🎄 Full story: imp.ac.at/news/article/t…
Convergent Assembly of Homo- and Heterotypic Ubiquitin Chains from Functionalized, Expressed Monomers via Thiol-Ene Chemistry (Christian F. W. Becker and co-workers) @CFWBecker @SFB_TPDvienna #openaccess 🔓 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…
The registration for the 2025 Ubiquitin & Friends Symposium is open! We can't wait to welcome all our TPD friends in Vienna!
Join us in Vienna 8-9 May for the #Ubiquitin & Friends Symposium 2025! Excellent line-up of guest speakers👇AND many slots for talks from abstracts PLUS flash talks & posters. Lots of opportunities to network with peers & experts in a friendly atmosphere 🔗protein-degradation.org/symposium/
New paper alert! The Dagdas group (@PlantoPhagy) discovered that the molecule ATG8 protects the vacuole when the cell wall is damaged. This mechanism ensures that the highly pressured vacuole, essential to the plant cell, remains intact. Read more: bit.ly/4aLCZK9
Happy to see that our Cell wall integrity #CWI & #ATG8ylation #preprint found a home @NaturePlants nature.com/articles/s4147… Congrats Jose, Peng, Alessia & everyone involved. Stay tuned for exciting updates on this story…
Congrats to Perutz group leaders Elif Karagöz and @ShotaroOtsuka on becoming tenured professors 🎉 Since 2019, the Karagöz lab has been uncovering how cells maintain protein homeostasis, while the @LabOtsuka explores how the ER and nucleus communicate ➡️ tinyurl.com/2phzhprj

Plant #autophagy is a rapidly moving field. We (@Ansa_Lina , expertly helped by @MargotRaffeiner, @SuayibUestuen & Y. @YonglunZeng) summarised the recent advances in the field for @AnnualReviews. Hope it's useful! annualreviews.org/content/journa…
📢New #preprint from the Karagöz lab @MaxPerutzLabs & the @PlantoPhagy lab on the crosstalk of UFMylation & ribosome-associated QC ➡️biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Great work led by excellent✨PhD students Milica Mihailovic & Aleksandra Anisimova👏Check our Milica's summary🧵below👇
1/ Excited to share the first preprint from my PhD work co-authored with @alessandrick on how UFMylation and the ribosome-associated quality control (RQC) pathways collaborate to clear stalled ribosomes at the ER! #UFMylation #qualitycontrol #ER biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵(1/8)
2025 marks an incredible milestone: it is the 20th anniversary of the Max Perutz Labs! 🎉 This is a chance not only to celebrate how far we’ve come but also to be inspired by the bold vision that started it all and to carry that energy forward. Stay tuned! #MaxPerutzLabs20Years
